SPRINGFIELD — It was standing room only at the UMass Henry M. Thomas Center at Tower Square in Springfield as city residents, those from neighboring Longmeadow and other communities listened to Eversource representatives present their plans to build a natural gas pipeline.
The Western Massachusetts Natural Gas Reliability Project would build a metering station on the Connecticut border in Longmeadow, where Tennessee Gas already has a pipeline. Connecting to that infrastructure, Eversource would run a new pipeline through Longmeadow, north into Springfield and connect it to the Bliss Street station on the bank of the Connecticut River.
